Explore the beauty of Venice

The stunning city of Venice harbours a wealth of artistic and architectural wonders, hardly changing for 600 years. Although now very much a popular place for tourists, it still retains its romantic charm and appeal.

Built on a lagoon, this wonderful city has much to offer the coach break visitor. View the magnificent Doge’s Palace, climb the bell tower of St Mark’s with great views over the city and lagoon, or stroll along the Grand Canal and marvel at the intricate architecture. The many alleyways and streets are home to many artisan shops selling carnival masks, glass and marbled paper and if you venture deeper you will discover the fabulous restaurants serving up real Venetian cuisine.

To soak up the romantic atmosphere, why not jump aboard a gondola, sit back and relax as you are escorted to some of the famous sites of the city, including the Rialto Bridge, one of Venice’s most recognizable icons. With many islands in the lagoon, there are lots of opportunities to explore, take a boat to Murano for its dazzling glassware or the enchanting Burano, with beautiful pastel houses, picturesque streets and delicate handcrafted lace.
